Am pretty sure most Nigerians in this platform are into freelancing or have one or two ideas about freelancing. Has anyone had an issue with the payment method? Most freelancing sites works with PayPal and in most cases it can be pretty difficult to have a Paypal account in Nigeria. How do you go about this?

Freelancing work is only for those people that have one skill or the other. Most of us here are not skilled and i agree with you that PayPal is very hard to set up here in Nigeria. You won't find people that are into freelancing here since they are making enough money being a freelancer
Thanks for agreeing. Cheers!
Wow, nice, what's the site about if I may ask. You can just create a thread about it
Yes in some countries PayPal doesn't work. I don't know how a member of that country gets paid. You should investigate which other methods you can be paid on freelance sites other than PayPal.

There are some persons here in my country that makes use of paypal though i guess they changed their country somehow or so.
Is it possible? Maybe they use someone else PayPal address outside your country. I still cannot say if it's possible.

Change their country? I even tried using VPN but I still can't get through.
That's the problem. Sites that are exclusively for Africans hardly have tasks for users. I used a survey site like that in the hopes of getting surveys. It did not work out.
I don't do freelancing because of my tight schedule. Pay per post is more flexibility and easy even for the busy type like me. Now, am concentrating on pay per post and learning one or two things about cryptocurrency.
I'm am not so active on freelancing sites but I still want to build my portfolio to see if I can get a job there.
